Homework Statement
A thin, flexible metal rod has a length of 0.606 meters. One end of the rod is clamped to a table, and the other end can vibrate freely. What are the first three natural frequencies of the rod if the wave speed in the rod is 27.4 meters per second? Hint: Draw pictures of what the rod will look like when it is vibrating at the first three harmonics.
The Attempt at a Solution
How would the open end affect the motion? I am confused here...
